I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family
Chapter 694 - 703 Do You Think Everyone Is a Fool?Chapter 694: Chapter 703 Do You Think Everyone Is a Fool?
“What are you doing here?” Bai Fei bit her teeth, unable to stop the hatred in her heart.
Wasn’t it because of Nan Xi’s lousy diet pills that she ended up looking like this ghastly figure now?
She couldn’t even bear to look at herself in the mirror, weighing herself like a madwoman every day, inducing vomiting.
The joy of eating was no longer part of her life.
Now, she just wanted to kill Nan Xi.
Nan Xi covered her mouth, shocked as she looked at Bai Fei, as if she couldn’t believe how Bai Fei had changed.
But inside, she was bursting with joy, happy to see anyone associated with Bai Zhi suffering, although she couldn’t show it on her face, could she?
After watching so many soap operas over the years, she could certainly feign a look of distress.
Her nose suddenly felt sour, and her eyes welled up with tears.
Of course, after all these years, this was the only trick she knew.
It didn’t matter if it was the same old approach or not; as long as it worked, that’s what counted.
Bai Zhi frowned in her sleep, seemingly irritated by an annoying noise that forced her to wake up.
Lifting her head, her sleepy eyes filled with a haze of confusion.
Her tousled hair added a touch of bewilderment to her charm, making her particularly adorable—a perfect shot for the reporters’ cameras.
Bai Zhi frowned again, visibly displeased.
“Why are you taking pictures of me?”
Bai Zhi didn’t like having her photo taken, always feeling she was too ugly.
But what she didn’t realize was that her petite, round face and those blank, big eyes gave her a dumbly cute appearance.
It made people want to pinch her cheeks…
Even as she looked at the reporters with a fierce expression, their first thought was that she seemed even cuter when angry.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I just thought you looked really cute just now, so I couldn’t help myself. Should I develop it for you?”
The reporter was a recent graduate and an intern, so he felt a bit embarrassed.
“No, delete it. I don’t like people taking my picture, thank you.”
Bai Zhi shook her head in refusal; she didn’t need a photograph.
“Okay then…” The reporter felt it was a shame— he had intended to develop the photo; the girl looked so adorable with her just-woke-up confusion.
But he deleted it anyway.
“What are you doing here?”
Bai Zhi turned to look at Bai Yu and Nan Xi. She hadn’t even gone looking for them, and yet here they were, showing up uninvited.
Bai Zhi stood up, quickly tied her hair into a messy bun, and nudged Wu Wa beside her.
Wu Wa also sat up groggily, eyeing them warily, ready to throw a punch at any time.
Nan Xi and Bai Yu exchanged glances, and Nan Xi’s eyes reddened again. Tears circled her eyes as she looked at Bai Zhi, then she suddenly knelt down.
When she looked up again, her eyes were filled with grief, and her lips trembled as she spoke.
“Sis, please forgive Dad and Mom. They didn’t do it on purpose… It was hard for them to raise us, how can you be so cruel to send them to jail?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi thought, oh, so they were here waiting for her.
She wasn’t in a hurry, took her time to find a chair, and gestured for the reporter to sit down.
“Come, have a seat. Would you like some tea? Shall I pour you a glass of water?”
Bai Zhi was very calm, feeling nothing upon hearing Nan Xi’s words, as if she didn’t exist.
It turned into a one-woman show by Nan Xi.
The reporter felt somewhat awkward. Others were crying elsewhere, and here she was enjoying the treatment of a guest.
Furthermore, he thought about the purpose of his visit today and quickly produced his press ID.
“Hello, we’re here to interview Miss Bai Zhi today about her decision to send her parents to prison. May I start the camera?”
The reporter was polite enough to ask Bai Zhi first.
After all, not everyone wants to be exposed to the camera, and if Bai Zhi didn’t agree, he would be out of luck.
He thought Bai Zhi would definitely disagree, since she was the party without reason. Little did he know, she agreed immediately, and in a quite calm manner…
“Sure.”
Bai Zhi glanced at Nan Xi on the ground, as long as she wouldn’t regret it.
Actually, she also felt that it was time to have a serious talk with Nan Xi. Of course, this was after Uncle had taken the test results to the police station already.
The test results were in, and the weight-loss drugs severely harmed one’s health, with certain chemicals that could cause hair loss and lead to organ failure.
The reason why others were not affected was that Bai Fei was using the latest version. The old version had fewer chemicals, so side effects would appear more slowly. But since Bai Fei’s was the latest version with a higher concentration, the side effects naturally occurred much faster.
“Shall we begin, should we help her get up?”
The author gestured toward Nan Xi, who was still kneeling on the ground. This scenario was disadvantageous for Bai Zhi. He liked the little girl, who seemed so cute, and that’s why he gave a gentle reminder.
Bai Zhi shook her head, indicating it wasn’t necessary.
“It’s not needed. If she wants to kneel, I can’t stop her. She’s old enough to be responsible for her actions. Who knows if she is confessing guilt by presenting a willow branch?”
The reporter was somewhat confused. Since that was the case, should he just start?
The reporter switched on the camera, and Nan Xi tried to pull at Bai Zhi’s clothes again while still kneeling.
Bai Zhi frowned, looking at her hand with disgust.
“Please speak, don’t get physical. Is this a case of assault? I’m not very fond of being touched by others.”
Bai Zhi took a step back as if she had just seen a dangerous flood or beast.
Reporter: “…” How could this girl be so silly? Behaving like this could make her disliked.
The tears came streaming down Nan Xi’s face even more, as if they cost nothing.
“Sister, we’re here today to talk to you about your desire to see our parents in jail.”
Nan Xi’s eyes were brimming with tears, and her eyes were especially red and swollen, looking like a fragile little girl.
And there sat Bai Zhi in the chair, watching Nan Xi indifferently, as if all of this had nothing to do with her, with an air of nonchalance.
“Please be mindful of your word choice. Are you kneeling to engage in moral coercion? Of course, everyone is entitled to their own freedom in life. If you want to kneel, I can’t force you to stand up, right?
And you mentioned ’our parents’? I’m sorry, my father might be a bit of a scoundrel, but he is not your father. Your father is simply my stepfather, okay?”
Bai Zhi spoke very calmly, making everything clear.
I didn’t ask you to kneel; you chose to do so yourself.
Bai Zhi faced the camera with no sense of panic, instead presenting a justified and reasoned appearance, which caught Nan Xi off guard. Before she could react, Bai Zhi continued to speak.
“Also, regarding your claim that I sent them to prison, excuse me, can we use some basic common sense, please? I’m just a child, could I really do such a thing? You must believe that the law always stands on the side of justice.
Would I have called the police if they hadn’t poisoned me?
Can we stop quoting out of context? By saying such misleading things, do you think everyone is a fool? Everyone’s eyes are clear, and their intelligence is intact, alright?”
